Standing at the gate of Ji's Mansion, Ji Ruyan took a deep look at this big house. She had never been there once since she was a child.
If I hadn't been about to leave Si You Country, I would never have wanted to step foot here.
Taking Yao Guang into Ji's Mansion, the inside of Ji's Mansion was not glamorous. On the contrary, it was silent and deserted, and everything looked lifeless.
Even the flowers and plants in the circle are lifeless, just a sparse flower in one place and a clump of grass in the other.
It looks like rotten grass that has been gnawed by dogs.
At first glance, you can tell that this garden has not been taken care of for a long time.
In the lobby, Mrs. Zhang, the old lady of Ji's Mansion, was already sitting there waiting for her arrival.
Yan Xue waited on her and brought a glass of warm water to the old lady Zhang, "Old lady, please drink some water first."
"Yanxue, do you think she will really come?"
This she refers to Ji Ruyan.
Old Madam Zhang is really uneasy. You know, if the thousand taels of silver are not given out, the Ji Mansion will cease to exist!
That bastard Ji Dongtian actually coaxed his wife, Mrs. Mo, into thinking about the deed of this house and wanted to use it to pay off the debt.
If she hadn't discovered it, the entire Ji family would have become beggars!
Mrs. Zhang is really powerless to deal with her eldest son's bad nature. How can she train her eldest son who can't listen, scold or care?
She had everything to do with eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. She came from a family of women and had to worry about her son in her old age. She was really fed up.
Ever since Ji Dongming's death, Mrs. Zhang has aged faster.
As soon as the second son died, Ji Dongtian's creditors immediately came to collect the debts. They were at their wits' end and all the things that could be pawned in the family had long been pawned.
It's easy to eat rice in other people's homes, but in Jifu, they have plain porridge and porridge every day, plus a few green vegetables, and don't even think about seeing a little bit of meat, not to mention how miserable it is.
When Yan Xue saw the old lady Zhang asking this question, she gave her a gentle smile, "Don't worry, old lady, the eldest lady is a person who sticks to her word. Since she promised the old lady in the first place, she will not break her promise." Although Yan Xue's answer is dispensable to the old lady Zhang.
But at this moment, she really wants Ji Ruyan to come.
While he was looking sad, Ji Ruyan walked into the lobby with Yao Guang, "Is the old lady waiting for me?"
"You're here, have you brought the money?"
When the old lady Zhang saw Ji Ruyan, she opened her mouth and was filled with money.
Ji Ruyan didn't waste much time and directly signaled Yao Guang to give her money.
The banknote of one thousand taels was given to the old lady Zhang. She immediately looked at it carefully several times and confirmed that it was indeed one thousand taels of silver. She immediately sent Yan Xue to repay all the debts she owed. p>
Yan Xue retreated, and the people in the room were no longer outsiders.
Uncle Zhao and Yan Xue were once old men in Ji Dongming's house, and they were also loyal people. Now they have taken refuge with the old lady Zhang.
Although Ji Dongtian's mansion is not as good as Ji Dongming's mansion, it still has a place to stay.
With the money given by Ji Ruyan, Guo Zidi also bought a big house in a foreign country, bought some land, and became a big landowner. Naturally, he was out of sight and out of mind about the current situation of the Ji Mansion. p>
Ji Ruyan glanced at the people in the room and said, "You have helped me today, so I will make you a request. As long as it is not excessive, I will help you. Just say it, I will listen.
